Ponytail holders that even the Queen Mother would approve of

Ponytail holders that even the Queen Mother would approve of
This might be the first summer where my oldest daughter has hair long enough to actually put up, and with the heat already sweltering, she rarely ever wears it down. So, on my hunt for cute ponytail holders-- hold the mammoth bows and corker ribbons please--look what I discovered!

Handmade using pretty linen cotton fabric Japanese fabric, these adorable hair ties are a whimsical ode to jolly old England. The double decker bus, the castle guards, even Big Ben are a welcome, subtle change to the sea of pink and purple ponytail holders I seem to be drowning in at my house. God save the Queen! -Kristen

Purchase these pretty handmade ponytail holders at Miss Mop Top on Etsy.
